Let Gaza In

Poem by Jess Semaan

Let yourself be moved by the pain of Gaza. Let the injustice break you and change you. Crack your heart open in ways you did not foresee were possible.

Let Gaza be a teacher. Let Gaza remind you and show you truth. Let Gaza be a rememberance that liberation is not for everyone. That whose life is valuable is political.

Let Gaza dismantle the myths of freedom for all, of revered western values, of free media, of so called democracies.

Let Gaza in. Let Gaza be the last time. Let Gaza be the last place. Let Gaza be the real never again.
